we had already annihilated Japan by the time we dropped the nukes. Every single city was firebombed except the nuke target cities. Japan cities were also primarily paper at the time.
and japan very much got what it deserved. they had massive plans to take over the entire pacific and the atrocities they committed in doing that were widespread across that part of the globe. smart bombs and precise targeting where not a part of warfare at that time.
